About Infant & Pediatric Formula
Infant and pediatric formulas here are nutrition products made for babies and children, including standard, hydrolyzed and amino acid-based infant formulas and pediatric nutrition drinks and tube feeding products for older children. This collection sits within Medical Nutrition, alongside metabolic and specialty formulas, oral nutritional supplements, tube feeding formula and food thickeners.
The formula itself should always be the one chosen by your pediatrician or clinician; check with your prescriber before switching products, since formulas that look similar can differ in protein source and composition. Once the product is set, the choices are practical ones. Form is the first: powder is mixed with water, while ready-to-feed and liquid concentrate products are packed as liquids, and liquid concentrate still needs to be diluted. Size refers to the can, carton or bottle volume, and pediatric drinks and tube feeding products may also come in several flavors or unflavored versions.
When reordering, use the product's item number or REF number from the can or case label rather than the name alone, because many formulas share similar names across versions. Listings state whether you are buying a single container or a case of several.
Frequently asked questions
How do I choose the right infant or pediatric formula?
The specific formula should be the one recommended by your pediatrician or clinician, since products differ in protein type and composition. Once the product is chosen, pick the form you prefer, powder, liquid concentrate or ready-to-feed, then the container size. For pediatric drinks, choose the flavor as well.
Are specialty infant and pediatric formulas covered by insurance?
Any HCPCS codes on our pages are shown for reference only. Whether a formula is covered depends on your payer and plan, so confirm with them first.
How do I reorder the same formula?
Search our site for the item or REF number printed on the can, carton or case label. Formula names can look alike across versions, so the number is more reliable than the name. Check whether the listing is a single container or a case, and match the form and size you normally use.
